From Trek to Tech: Real-World Realizations of Star Trek Gadgets
A look at Star Trek tech that has become or is close to becoming real: jet‑injection hyposprays, AI‑driven universal translators via earbuds, Holodeck‑style interactive rooms (Milken Center experiments and NYU metarooms with Oculus Quest), voice‑activated virtual assistants and emotional‑aware interfaces, and real humanoid robots (Optimus, Ameca, G1, NAO). It also notes that some Trek staples—like a true Emergency Medical Hologram or a real transporter—remain speculative.
